Stability system Roll Stability
Control
The Roll Stability Control (RSC
1
) system helps
minimize the risk of a rollover in the event of e.g.
a sudden evasive maneuver or if the vehicle
begins to skid.
The RSC system monitors the lateral angle at
which the vehicle is leaning and registers any
changes. Using this information, the system cal-
culates the likelihood of a rollover. If there is an
imminent risk of a rollover, Electronic Stability
Control is activated, engine torque is reduced and
brakes are applied to one or more of the wheels
until the vehicle has regained stability.
WARNING
The vehicle’s stability systems, including RSC
do not replace the driver’s responsibility for
operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Speed
and driving style should always be adapted to
the current road, traffic and weather condi-
tions. Posted speed limits should always be
respected.

Electronic Stability Control
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC
2
) function
helps the driver avoid skidding and improves the
vehicle's directional stability.
This symbol will be displayed in
the instrument panel when the
ESC system is intervening.
When the ESC has intervened
to apply the brakes, a pulsing
sound may be heard and the
vehicle may accelerate more slowly than expec-
ted when the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The ESC system consists of the following sub-
functions:
•
Stability control
3
•
Spin control and active yaw control
•
Engine drag control
•
Trailer Stability Assist
1
Roll Stability Control

Electronic Stability Control

Also called traction control.
